One of the best parts about going back to Paris to Le Showroom are the amazing designers that I meet.Here are some pictures from the new collection of one of my favorites, Mi Purocorazon. Based in Peru, Carolina, the designer, works with local artisans. She is so lovely and intelligent and I think it reflects in her brilliantly bright yet thoughtful collections.

I love this photoshoot, at a flower-growers greenhouse! We need to find more shops for her to sell these beautiful pieces in the U.S!

I was caught by the first very shot. The combination of patterns and colors is completely distinctive. She definitely incorporates some wonderful elements from indigenous crafts but makes them into something completely modern and universal. I would love to be able to buy one of her bags!
